Disk Management
Disk removal is simple and easy. To accommodate the varying RAID types, hot swap and non-
hot swap disk removal is designed into the OMNINAS.
Replacing a Hot-swap Drive
You can replace a hot-swap drive (RAID 1 mode only) by using the hot-swap button found on the
front panel or through the Disk Manager menu on the OMNINAS interface.
IMPORTANT:
The formatting process deletes any data on the disk. Make sure you backup your data be-
fore proceeding. Do not power off or reboot the system to prevent damage.
To replace a drive using the Hot-swap button:
1. On the bay cover (front panel), press in the indicator to open the cover. The cover pops
open.
2. Extend the cover to allow access to the HDD trays.
